Don't miss our next MOPS meeting!

Friday, February 11th at 9:30 AM

It is going to be a "flip-flop" February at MOPS! We are flipping our meetings and this Friday, February 11th is our Craft day! We have a very special craft: No sew fleece blankets. If you have fabric scissors, please label and bring them. You will be making two blankets: one to take home and one to donate to a special children's hospital. This is in loving memory of little Carter Cummings.

I am planning to be back at MOPS this meeting; I am so excited to see everyone. But, to make things a little easier on me I am inviting our MOMSnext group to join us. MOMSnext is for mothers of school-aged children. We usually meet after our MOPS meeting for lunch once a month. I am just not up for an all day event yet. Thank you so much for your prayers and encouraging words as I have been through this difficult recovery time at home. I loved the get well banner everyone signed and I still have it taped to my living room wall. I love you all! Blessings, Heather

Here are some helpful tips to make your MOPS morning even more enjoyable.

  • Come as early as 9:20 am to drop off your children for MOPPETS.
    Please make sure to mark all of your child's belongings (i.e. diaper bag, bottles, pacifiers, etc.)
    *Please include a change of clothes for each child in their bag. To check in, enter through the glass doors closest to our sanctuary.
  • It's cold & flu season. A child who has been sick within the last 24 hours shouldn't come to MOPPETS. A fever, diarrhea, vomiting, or a runny nose that isn't clear means it's a day to stay home.

Moms, come hungry! Breakfast is served . . .
